What You Need to Run StatXact®

Statistical Analysis

Although StatXact® has a substantial choice of statistical procedures, all are logically grouped according to whether they solve one, two or K-sample problems, problems involving contingency tables, or problems involving measures of association. All you need know is the type of statistical problem and the data format. Executing an exact test is as simple as pulling down the Statistics Menu and selecting the appropriate choice.

Data Editing

Bringing data into StatXact is simple, too. The unique TableData Editor allows you to directly edit the cells of a contingency table. No other statistical software package we know of provides this capability. For case-by-case data, our CaseData Editor has many spreadsheet-like features including data transformations. With data from Excel®, copy it to the clipboard, and paste it into the StatXact CaseData Editor.

StatXact has commands for converting case-by-case data into contingency tables and vice versa, and for computing and displaying the scores for many popular linear rank tests including tests for censored survival data. Besides being analytically valuable, these features make excellent teaching tools in demonstrating that one unified permutational approach is applicable to both continuous and categorical data.

StatXact reads data created by other packages in the following formats:
